“I don't think any of us keep up our correspondence too well，”I said．“I know
I don't，but I take it he's someone you’ve known quite a while?”“All my life．We were kids together, went to school together and all the way through high school．”“There are not too many people who've had such a long friendship，”I said．“Actually，”the driver went on，“I ha dn’t seen him more than once or twice year over the past 25 or 30 years because I moved away from the old neighborhood and you kind of lose touch even though you never forget．”
“You said‘was’．Does that mean---?”he nodded．“A couple of weeks a go．”
“I'm sorry”He didn’t say anything more，and we rode on in silence for a few minutes．But I realized that Old Ed was still on his mind when he spoke again，almost more to himself than to me.”“I should have kept in touch with him．”“Well，’’ I agreed，“we should all keep in touch with old friends more than we do．But things come up and we just don't seem to find the time．”

What is America's number one sport? Can I still say baseball? You could make that statement 30 years ago，but things have changed．Baseball of course has the richest history of all sports．But with the popularity of basketball and American
football，there can now be an argument on which sport is A merican’s number one sport． Basketball really took a turn in the1980’s as Magic Johnson and Larry Bird took the NBA to another level．Of course，basketball was already popular and had seen such stars as Jerry West and Dr．J，but the real breakthrough(突破)came in the 1980's and from there it really took off with Michael Jordan into the 90’s．Basketball has even become very global now as many NBA stars competed in the Olympics and faced no competition．Today，they had better be ready because there are so many talents in other countries and the competition will be stiff．
Like basketball，American football has always been a favorite of many sports fans and its popularity has grown widely．The ratings(收视率)that Super Bowl Sunday brings are amazing．They have even talked about making Super Bowl Sunday a national holiday．
In the year 2050，basketball and American football will have history like baseball's rich history and maybe American national sport．They have been trying for years，but it is not going to happen．
So what is American’s number one sport? To me baseball will always be Americans' hobby—rich in history and many memories for people of all ages．If you have any comments on this subject，do give your opinions．
51．The most powerful basketball player in l980's is
A．Larry Bird B．Michael Jordan
C．Jerry West D．Magic Johnson
52．This passage mainly talks about
A．baseball and its history
B．the most popular sport in the world
C．which sport is the number one in America
D．whether basketball is a global sport pastime
53．The author agrees that American football
A．will have rich history
B．is world's most popular sport
C．has its breakthrough in the l 980’s
D．will have the richest history by 2050
54．What does the underlined word “sti ff” mean in Paragraph Two?
A．Safe B．Hard．C．Crazy．D．Strong．
55．The author wrote the passage to ．
A．persuade people to support baseball as America's number one sport B．introduce the history of different sports in America
C．compare different kinds of sports that are popular among American people D．express his idea that baseball is America’s number one sport

On the fourth Thursday in November, Americans celebrate the festival of Thanksgiving. This festival is a time when the family comes together for a meal and gives thanks to God for the blessings they have received．The first Thanksgiving festival was celebrated by the early American settlers who gave thanks to God for their good harvest．
In America，Thanksgiving is a family holiday．It is on the holiday that all the family make a special effort to get together．The feast(宴席)is always held on Thursday and most people have a four-day holiday from school and work．Thus they are able to travel a great distance to be with their family．

During the meal there is plenty of food for everyone present．The meal is a very joyful time．When the meal is over, some will help with the dishes and others will return to the living-room to talk or watch television．
